According to ESPN.com, second-round pick Curtis Samuel will play a big role as a slot receiver who also can line up in the backfield, but McCaffrey will have the biggest impact for the Panthers in 2017. He can play running back, slot receiver and wide receiver, and he also returns punts. His flexibility will keep him on the field and create big-play opportunities on short passes. That is much needed for an offense that has ranked 29th in the NFL in yards after the catch over the past two seasons. While his speed, receiving skills and play-making ability are unquestioned, there are plenty of observers who have concerns about McCaffrey's ability to thrive as an RB1 at pro level. Still, as a runner, he displays a patient running style that will remind some of Le'Veon Bell due to his discipline and stop-start acceleration. Despite his diminutive size, McCaffrey is capable of handling inside runs. Of course, Jonathan Stewart remains in the mix in Carolina -- at least for now. But from a fantasy perspective, McCaffrey is going to be the man to own -- especially in PPR scoring formats.
